Firmware Update
This guide shows you how to update the firmware on your Open Mower.
Prerequisites
This update guide assumes that you have the following:
- A mower with the OpenMowerOS running on it.
- Important: verified that the
/boot/mower_config.sh
file has the correct hardware version set (OM_HARDWARE_VERSION). If this is wrong, the wrong firmware will be installed on your device. Check the Manual Firmware Installation guide on how to find that value. - The Raspberry Pi is running, and you are able to connect to it via
ssh
- The mower is connected to the internet
Step 1: Run the Firmware Update Script
The OpenMowerOS image contains a firmware update script which will download and install the latest firmware version for you.
In order to run the script, execute the following commands:
# Make sure that you are in your home directory (the script is located there):
cd ~
# Execute the script:
./fetch_and_upload_firmware.sh
If everything works as expected, the output should look like this:
Step 2: Done 🎉
That’s everything you need to do.
